Sulzer impeachment creates acting governorship in New York
Albany Aug 19 The New York assembly voted to impeach Governor William Sulzer, triggering Lieut. Gov. Glynn as acting governor until Sulzer’s trial ends. Attorney General Carmody issued an opinion upholding the transfer of powers to Glynn and affirming the assembly’s right to impeach despite extraordinary session. Glynn and advisers delayed a trustees meeting, awaiting guidance and with Glynn planning to use the lieutenant governor’s room as the executive office. Sulzer, while impeached, appeared in better spirits as Mrs. Sulzer’s improving condition eased his worries.
